Irish Passport Documents

Can I apply for my son Irish passport in Ireland if my son lives aboard in Minsk as they do not have an Irish Embassy in Minsk. I am an Irish citizen but my son was born abroad. Any help would be appreciated.

How is your son eligible for Irish citizenship, i.e. were you born in Ireland, or are you a citizen by descent, or through naturalization? And how old is the child? That info may factor into the way in which you need to apply for his passport.

I am Irish by birth and live in Ireland now. My child is born on 2/5/19. My Wife has right visa but just waiting on son to get a passport so we can live together in Ireland

Are you also Jason89 the OP?

It looks like the embassy in Lithuania handles matters for Belarus. Have you reviewed the process information in the links below? Depending on your exact situation, your wife may need to be the one who applies for your son's passport through the Lithuanian embassy. I think it comes down to the guardianship rules. There's a phone number in the first link below which should be able to help if no one here who has been in your specific situation.

I am Irish by brith, my wife is from Belarus she give brith to are baby in Belarus now we are looking a passport for the baby so we can live together in Ireland where I currently live. My wife is applying for an Irish passport for are baby from Belarus my question is does the witness in section 7 need to be in English or can it be in Russian or she get a Russian solicitor that speaks English to sign it for witness and sign the pictures of the baby.Any help would be appreciated

I regret to say that there is no Irish diplomatic mission in Belarus as they would be the best people who could provide an expert advice on this matter. You should contact the Irish embassy in Vilnius, Lithuania who will be able to help. https://www.dfa.ie/irish-embassy/lithuania/

I previously provided you with two links with this information. The moderators have merged your multiple threads so scroll up and you will see the links.

Ok thanks.
For Irish passport for child does the witness need to know you. I get mixed reviews from the Irish passport centre some say no some say yes. Has anyone experienced any such thing because my wife currently lives in Belarus and she can't get a person that speaks English that knows her to be her witness but she can find people that doesn't know her that can be a witness for the passport application form any help would be appreciated
